    The New York Times: Prof. Zephyr Teachout Says There’s a “Hunger for Leadership” in Current Political Climate

    Fordham Law Professor Zephyr Teachout says Democrats want to see activism among its leadership in resisting President Trump and his policies, in this article in The New York Times.

    “What people can learn from Cory Booker and Chris Van Hollen is there is an incredible hunger for putting the body down in the tracks,” said Zephyr Teachout, the progressive Fordham Law professor who has run unsuccessfully for governor and attorney general in New York. “What Jeffries publicly suggests is a kind of impotence. There’s a hunger for leadership and a sense that the two most powerful Democrats aren’t there.”

    Read “Democrats Step Up Trump Resistance as Base Hungers for More of a Fight” in The New York Times.
